Create a Drupal 7 Custom Table Module

**PLEASE READ THE ATTACHED FILE FOR FULL PROJECT INFO INCLUDING MILESTONES, TIMEFRAME & DELIVERABLES** We require you to develop a custom module for this project that will fetch data from our backend API and, based upon the returned JSON string, render the table. PROJECT DETAILS • An API call will be initiated from the Drupal interface by clicking on a button or some such HTML control. • The API call will completed and return a JSON string to your code. • The JSON string will define the structure of the table and the content of the table. o For e.g. the JSON will define if all table columns contain text only. o For e.g. the JSON will define if any table columns contain buttons. In this use case the HTML buttons will also enclose a CSS class and importantly the JavaScript or Drupal function to execute when the button is clicked. This is required for drilldown. o For e.g. the JSON will also define if any columns contain images. • You will be required to write very clean, high quality PHP code that can parse this JSON strings and create the table structure. • The code will then pass the structure to the container, which will primarily be Drupal View. • The table should support the following features which are also strict requirements: o Sorting o Paging o Searching o Column Selection - There will be dropdown that will list all the column names. - User can select which columns to display using a checkbox control. Columns that are checked will be displayed while those that are not checked will not be displayed. o Column Collapse - User can choose to collapse or expand each column. • When the column is expanded the user can adjust the width of the column • When the column is collapsed the user should still see the column header (in-which the text direction will be switched from horizontal to vertical and the text size of the column header may be reduced but still readable) but no data in the entire column should be visible and the width of the column should be very small. o Column Reordering - User should be able to drag-drop columns to re-order then in any order the user chooses o Table Configuration Auto Save - Whenever a user changes the configuration of a table (such as by using column selection and/or column reordering) the configuration should be automatically saved to that user's account so that if the user logs off and then logs back into his or her account the table configuration is retained from the user's last visit. • DataTables: We are aware that tables in Drupal can be rendered as Views. In that approach the Drupal DataTables module can be applied on top of the table. This will support paging, sorting and searching but will not support column collapse, column select, column reordering or Table Configuration Auto Save, all of which you will have to code as part of this project. o [login to view URL] • Since the DataTables plugin also supports async data fetch, in the JSON string we will also indicate if data should be pulled async. In such scenario only a few records will be sent via the server and your code will be responsible for making async calls to the backend API to fetch more records. CODING REQUIREMENTS • All source code must be saved to the our company's development server every day. • RedMine will be used for Bug Reporting & Feedback • All code must be clean and high quality. You MUST follow the Drupal coding standards, which can be found here: [login to view URL] • All code you create must be reviewed, processed and approved through both the "Drupal Coder Module" ([login to view URL]) and its add-on called "Coder Tough Love" ([login to view URL]).
